But then a vital new force takes root and flourishes, causing their lives to converge with devastating effect. Teenage girls now have immense physical power--they can cause agonizing pain and even death. And, with this small twist of nature, the world drastically resets. From award-winning author Naomi Alderman, THE POWER is speculative fiction at its most ambitious and provocative, at once taking us on a thrilling journey to an alternate reality, and exposing our own world in bold and surprising ways. 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 $a Women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Teenage girls $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Muscle strength $x Women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Sex role $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Social role $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Sex role $v Fiction 650 0 $a Electronic books. 655 7 $a Fantasy fiction. $2 gsafd 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/12524470?utm_source=MARC $z Instantly available on hoopla. 856 42 $z Cover image $u https://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/hbg_9780316547659_180.jpeg 941 $a 1 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20231206013202.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4DF07914940511EE938C1F5A49ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
